I was wondering, could we add the enemy to the infobox? Because we already have the enemy confirmed as the "Tessalecta" (or however you spell it). [[User:TheTARDIScontroller|TheTARDIScontroller]] 14:46, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Can someone fix this statement "the greatest war criminal in the Universe. And Hitler". First of all the period should be a comma and it's Adolf Hitler not And Hitler

I think until tommorow, we should add an episode still for the main image, don't you agree? Here's one I had in mind: [[User:BroadcastCorp|BroadcastCorp]] <small>([[User talk:BroadcastCorp|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/BroadcastCorp|contribs]])</small> 16:03, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

== Gun ==
== Gun ==
Now I may be wrong, but I'm sure that the gun that hittler pulls out of his belt, is a standard german officers lugar, but when rory is holding it, its a revolver, is that a production error, or did I just miss see it? [[User:General MGD 109|General MGD 109]] 21:17, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

: Actually no, Hitler draws the revolver. Why Hitler would carry a revolver that looks like a British model, no idea, nor do I remember Hitler ever carrying a side arm.[[User:Var&#39;jhar&#39;rai|Var&#39;jhar&#39;rai]] 02:28, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

== Silence ==
 
Okay for one how has the doctor forgotten about the silence? he just never figured out what they are and what they wanted and secondly if it isn't already noted Mel(ody)/River had already killed the Doctor [[User:Cory Jaynes|Cory Jaynes]] 01:59, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
*Because he turned away. That's sort of the whole point of the Silence. '''<font color=#609000>d</font> [[User:Witoki|<font color=#609000>●</font>]][[User_talk:Witoki|<font color=#FF6090>●</font>]][[Special:Contributions/Witoki|<font color=#6090FF>●</font>]]''' 05:56, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
Okay i get that but they still remember to some extent i mean they remember in The Impossible Astronaut and The Day of the Moon that they're fighting someone ... so while there's no exact proof that he does remember with the way he says it there's no exact proof the he doesn't remember. [[User:Cory Jaynes|Cory Jaynes]] 14:14, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
* The "exact proof" is that the Silence cause you to forget them the second you look away. Because the Doctor isn't looking at a Silent, he can't remember them.

** I agree with Cory Jaynes. There's not absolute proof one way or another, unfortunately. The question "What is the Silence?" is not proof that he does not remember the encounter with the Silence; at the time it seemed to me that The Doctor was just taking advantage of having access to the Teselecta's records. In Day of the Moon, the Doctor says that "information about these creatures erases itself, over time". But, in that episode, he's been locked up for three months and (presumably) not seen any Silence, yet he remembers their existance. We don't know for sure what has happened here.

== Production errors ==
== Production errors ==
The entry on production errors is wrong. The gun in use is a revolver, not a semi-automatic, which means the empty brass stays in the drum instead of ejecting the spent brass. Hitler fires his shots, the doctor then removes the brass from the drum, effectively unloading the revolver. The brass we get to see in the unloading scene is actually empty.

== Revelations on The Silence ==
I gotta say, I'll be watching with a bit of amusement to see how the wiki handles updating and creating articles involving The Silence after what we learned about its real nature today. Not saying it outright due to spoilers. [[Special:Contributions/99.60.84.136|99.60.84.136]] 02:35, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

== Gun with bullets in it NOT a production error ==
Just because he fired bullets doesn't mean it should be empty. For those who aren't familiar with how guns work, the shell stays in the gun. And if you look closely, some of the shells are show themselves empty when the doctor empties them. The production error should be removed. [[User:Rawrgoaway|Rawrgoaway]] 05:54, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

Haven't stuck this in because I'm not sure whether 'non-canon' sources count etc, but I think it may be worth mentioning that the whole "I know that you know" conversation between River and the Doctor in this episode is reminiscient of a similar exchange between the Doctor and the Master in the Moffat penned '''The Curse of Fatal Death' [[User:Baziel|Baziel]] 14:25, August 28, 2011 (UTC)''
